Disposal of Obsolete Materials in Files


A Check in several departments of the University reveals that an excessive amount of filing space contains obsolete material. Such material should be disposed of to make the space available for more current material and to reduce the need for the purchase of additional filing cabinets.

Copies of all business forms dated prior to June 30, 1949, and all correspondence relating thereto should be destroyed.
